Pros

Lots of Opportunities, lots of freedom to make decisions, Total Compensation due to stock price.

Cons

Lots of terrible Managers/Leaders at the Director and VP level....it's an 'old boys' club. If you don't get along and tow the line, you'll be out either by your decision or theirs sooner rather than later. Performance doesn't matter. Ridiculous organization structure, from top to bottom....navigating it is unbelievably difficult.
